Inoue Yuki is a contemporary artist who expresses modern society in a cynical and humorous way with the theme of “evolution,” using salamanders as a motif. This exhibition features works that address the sense of disenchantment and crisis that pervades the world today by looking at the space between “inside” and “outside,” which themselves come about by being separated by a border.
